@jon-anderson I'm glad your family enjoys it. My daughter likes looking at my sketchbook to see what is Flanigan up to that day too.

These are so fun! They all make me smile, but "crooked" made me laugh! Great work!

@mf-james Love all of them, but the Sword made me laugh! I LOVE Flanigan Fox!! Great work

[Elaine B]

@mf-james Love this little fox! Look forward to your post each day

[MF James]

@elaine-b @NoWayMe Thank you, both. He is quite fun to draw.

Shattered

I really struggled with this one. Not 100% happy with it.

@mf-james The simplicity of your lines to illustrate an image that feels full of life is amazing and is a skill that has so far evaded me. I really enjoy coming back each day to see what our friend Flanigan is doing. I'm curious what size paper you're using for these and if you are using strictly a brush pen if you don't mind disclosing.

[MF James]

@jon-anderson I'm glad you enjoy them.
I use the Strathmore sketchbook. 9" x 12". I love that sketchbook, it has a wonderful texture. I usually fit two days in one page, although this last one was like 3/4 of the page, just because I kept adding skyscrapers.
The only thing I use is the Pentel XGFKP/FP10-A Brush Pen, for the underdrawing a scarlett col-erase and an orange colour pencil for Flanigan.

I really like your creativity!

[MF James]

@mare333 Thanks! Some prompts are easier than others as you may well have found out.

[mare333]

@mf-james Most definitely true, MF James. Found I have to think in the abstract to get any ideas sometimes.

These are so inventive. Graceful may be my new favorite--but it's awfully hard to choose! Such a fun image and I love the expression on Flanigan's face in that one!
